    Anonymous I would recommend using EOMONTH. You can use a pattern such as:

    Measure =
  VAR __Today = TODAY()
  VAR __Max = EOMONTH( __Today, -6 )
  VAR __Min = DATE( YEAR( __EOM6 ), MONTH( __EOM6 ), 1 )
  VAR __Table = FILTER( ALL( 'Sales Data' ), [Date] >= __Min && [Date] <= __Max )
  VAR __Result = SUMX( __Table, [sales price] )
RETURN
  __Result

    Or do you not have a Date column?
